Amazing Me, Amazing You

We would love to share with you a lovely story ‘Amazing Me, Amazing You’ by Christine McGuinness. This book was included in a recent PATHS lesson that our inclusive ambassador Monty brought for us to enjoy. 🌈

Promoting inclusivity in our centre creates an environment that celebrates diversity and means that every child that walks through our door feels welcome, safe, and valued. This supports our UNCRC focus of the month : Article 2 – “All children have these rights no matter what their differences are.” This means that every child is valued as an individual and encouraged to flourish. In the words of the wonderful author of our story Christine McGuinness; “Accepting that everyone is different is something to celebrate.”

By sharing inclusive lessons with our families we are ensuring that all children get to learn and play together, make friends, and feel like they belong. This promotes an understanding of every person within the world and introduces the children to building empathy and respect for every one around them. It also makes sure that every child gets the support they need to grow, learn, and be happy. By including everyone, we are instilling the early values to creating a kind and fair world where all children have the chance to shine! ✨

Well-being Workshop Feb 2025

Today Julie ran our well-being workshop with our families. She discussed some of the strategies and resources we use with the children to help support them to understand their feelings. Families were given a brief introduction to the PATHS program and how the program benefits the children. At the end of the workshop, the children joined their grown ups for a yoga session.
